Teenage budget build

I have a 360 that I am looking to build up for my 1973 duster. I am a teenager so money is short and I have no problem trading or using used or cheaper parts.
I do not have any specific HP goals just a nice street/strip engine, no need for A/C or power brakes.
I do not know a whole lot about what parts to use but I do understand engines. I was thinking either a 408 stroker motor or a full solid roller engine(or maybe I just don't know some of the downsides). any tips or combos?
